How much power do you think the ported trick flow heads are giving you? Ive heard around 30 horse gain on worked stock heads, curious what the worked TF do!

Your guess would be as good as mine at this point since the heads were installed along with all other mods prior to Dyno/Tune. 30HP would be a good guess however would depend on how much boost you are making along with few other variables. Overall for me it was about reliability during its lifecycle and future goals (more HP!) so TF was the obvious decision in this case.

You read my mind! I plan on taking her to the strip next week. Should be comical attempting to gain traction on stock tires!

Ha Ha... I haven't even tried. Been there done that when it was stock. No way I'm going back until I have some MT's on the rear.

I have hit the road track a few times and going again in two weeks. PTM modes are your friend there. Turned them off and it got scary fast. LOL
